Gustav Klimt An Aftermath appeared as a final flowering of the collotype portfolio. According to Max Eisler, Editor, Vienna, 1931, Austrian State Printing Office, this portfolio was intended to complete Das Werk Gustav Klimts, yet it stands as an independent creation. The portfolio contains 30 color collotypes, 150 copies in English. Of those 20 copies (nos I - XX) were offered as a gala edition bound in gilt leather. The Inclusion of unfinished paintings (Ada and Eve; Bridal Progress) as well as previously unpublished works gives the portfolio unique value.
